BANGOR, Dec l3.
The two suspected robbers of Peter Ben
nett are now safely lodged here in the
county Jail awaiting their hearing which will
probably come off sometime this week.
The deputy sheriff is making all possible
efforts to wiring confession from Whitney's
pal in order that he may secure the hidden
gold if it is concealed somewh here, and thus
obtain the other $1,000 reward.
1t is admitted by all that it would be use
less to try to induce Whitney to confess, but
1t is thought by some that by the promise of
leniency his pal can be made to squeal
All the officers continue to confidently
state that they have ample evidence to con-
Wet their men. In regard to the amount of
money taken from the prisoners, / am in
formed on excellent authority that some
over s22O0, was taken in all, both at the
search in Rumford and at the jail

THE HUMANE SOCIETY.

The Report of DIR. Adams-A Good
Work Done.
DIR. Adams report made yesterday at the
meeting of the Connecticut Humane society
in Hartford is as follows:
To the President, Officers and Members of
the Connecticut Humane society:
submit the fourth annual report of my
doines in behalf of this society. I have
visited IA towns and received 275 complaints,
large majority having good grounds for
complaint investigated and modified the
condition of human beings as follows: Chill
dren, 112, of whom SO were sent to the
County home, 10 to Reform school, Meriden,
and five to Industrial school, Meriden. Two
insane men were sent to the asylum and two
old and neglected men and three of such
women were cared for. This shows 119 cases
against Al cases last year.
OF animals relieved, 500 were from work
when lame and sore, Al were overloaded, II
starved or feeble, and %, including z CLAM
dered horses, were killed. The total number
of horses thus relieved was 443. The number
of animal cases the year previous was 695.
A child three years of age, which had been
neglected until its head seemed one seething
mass of maggots; quite space on top of the
scalp was eaten off, the little one having
been left day after day alone with convul-
sions and sufferings.
A lady SO years old, who had given her
property to another to care for her during
her life, was left in an old house, the roef of
which had fallen in, with scarce a covering
to shield her from the winter weather, with
out fire or fuel, sick and unable to help her.

When Elihu Yale founded that time hon

struck blow at ignorance that has rever-
berated for more than two centuries through
out the length and breadth of the land. and
placed his name in the foremost rank of
Americas public benefactors But greater
seourge than ignorance is now running
rampant in our midst. Do you know what
ails you when you have dull headache; no
appetite; nothing tastes good that you eat;
specks pass before your eyes; low spirits;
an irritable and peeyish temper; bowels con-
stipated; an appearance of red or white
brick dust in the urine; tired feeling and
don't know what ais you? You have fallen
a victim to that modern scourge, Malaria.
Nothing on this earth will tone you up SO
quickly and arrest the progress of Malaria
